If you had the choice to go back in time, would you?

For all those oxy-heads out there, I need to know... would you ever go back in time and say NO to that first pill (and continue saying no after that)?
 
I have never regretted using opiates. My only regret was when I went from using them orally to insufflation to IV. That was the game changer.

If I had known what I know now, I would have never graduated from just popping a few Percocets.
 
I think I would say no if I had a second chance. I don't use much anymore, but it is still on my mind all the time.
 
My only regret is that I did not become a Pharmacist..!!
right! and i also regret that i didn't care much for chemistry when i was in school!!! lol now i almost want to go back to school! and i'm old!!! :D
 
Although opiates have destroyed my life, I don't regret a bit of it. There were bad times, but they was good times as well.
 
I wouldn't go back in time either, but I will say this, that my OC days were so much more awesome and laid-back than what it is now...

It went from swinging by a close family friend's house every couple weeks to discuss books and movies and, oh yeah, to pick up a few oxys... to... waiting at a gas station for fifteen minutes in some sketchy downtown neighborhood to pick up a couple bags of dope from some sketchy ass, no-name dealer.

It sucks, man, because I feel like the dope scene is just so much colder and less intimate. I know that sounds strange and it's to be expected, for sure, but there was almost a comradery, understanding, and a certain closeness between all the pill-poppers I knew; everything was so non-chalant, and it was more like, "yeah come on over and grab your pills we're just about to put in a movie..."

In fact, I had no real "dealer." I mean, this close family friend knew where to get the pills (oxycontin), of course, and he sold them to me, but I know that he made no real profit. He would never buy very many pills, but I would buy no fewer than ten pills at a time, and so whatever the woman would throw him on the side for bringing her business, maybe one or two pills, well, that's what he would take for himself and he was cool with it.

I just wish that the dope scene could be more like that, and it isn't. It never will be, no matter how close you may be to your dealer. I'm pretty close with my dope dealer, but when the discussion turns to dope and our wanting to buy bags... it's cold, hard business. There's no more smiling, friendly chatter or being easy... it's business.

So, I regret that things changed. But do I regret the choices I've made? No, not really... no.
 
I'd def go back in time.....and place a SHIT TON of bets, then I could say as a wise man once did, "I used to have a drug problem, but now I have enough money".
 
Shit, man, can I just go farther back in time to the 1900's when Heroin and Coke were legal, clean, and cheap?

Most people that have really been through the opiate game would say yes I would guess. I certainly would. Those that say no probably haven't been kicked out of their houses, ostracized, treated like shit, and ignored due to their habits takeover of their lives.
 
I regret that I got addicted and started injecting. I'm back to popping them orally and i'm sticking to it, fuck the needle. Needle is too powerful of a beast to control.

I said that I would not take opiates if I had to do it over again, but it was for different reasons then you mention others may have. I never got too bad with it, and even now it is still under control. I have always been functional while using, and maintained a job along with doing well in school. I was also putting a certain amount of money in the bank per week, and didn't go into that savings to purchase drugs.

The main reason that I wouldn't take the drugs if I had another chance is because getting high is on my mind a lot. For example, earlier this summer I knew that I was getting some roxi 3 weeks from the time I returned home from school. I knew that I likely was not doing any before then, and was fine with that, but everyday it was still in my mind that I was getting stuff in 3 weeks. It just occupied too much valuable space and thoughts in my brain.
